Chapter 734

Great air battles

Compared to magic, the harpys' crossbow arrows that had been ready to fire were of course faster to attack, and the Herasian army's griffin swarm had just taken to the skies to usher in a dense rain of arrows after they had taken advantage of the relative height.

The griffon's wails soon became a chord in the sky.

Inheim was indeed not mistaken, the light crossbows in the hands of the Harpy Banshees of the Entagree Army were indeed not very powerful, but that also depended on the situation.

This light crossbow is not very powerful against armored combat units, but for griffins whose flesh and blood are feathers, this light crossbow is enough to pose a great threat, although the crossbow arrows it shoots cannot even penetrate simple chain mail, but it is not difficult to penetrate the feathers of griffins.

The attack of arrows and arrows caused the griffons to bleed a lot in the process of rising into the air to meet the enemy, and the sky was full of broken feathers and feathers of the griffins, falling like snowflakes.

This scene watched Inheim grit his teeth.

The griffons paid more for their approach to the enemy than he had imagined.

However, this loss is still within his acceptable range.

Some griffons fell from the sky with crossbow bolts stuck in their bodies, but many more were able to close the distance to the enemy in the face of enemy attacks.

Moreover, Elzak's angel legion can be said to be almost unscathed in this wave of attacks by the harpys, and the skilled angel warriors with long swords in one hand and a large shield in the other, protect themselves from water.

What's more, the enemy showed no signs of retreating.

"It doesn't matter if it's worth it, it's worth it," Inheim comforted himself in his heart.

But immediately, when the magic attack of the Entagre Army began, Inheim's nerves, which had just been slackened by self-comfort, collapsed again.

Almost as soon as the first wave of attacks from the harpies was over, a sea of fire suddenly appeared in the sky.

"How so?"

"Not a meteor shower"

"Infernal Flames are Infernal Flames"

At Inheim's side, some of the officers of the Erathian Army cried out in amazement at the unexpected situation in the sky.

"Miscalculated" Inheim was also greatly distracted.

He guessed that the enemy could use meteor rain magic on such a large scale and quickly, probably because he had a large number of meteor fire rain magic staffs, but he didn't expect that the enemy mage had more than one magic wand in his hand.

Unconsciously, he had been guided by the actions of the Ntagrean army, and had entered a misunderstanding of habitual thinking.

Inheim didn't know that the range of lethal magic that Jian Chen designated for the Entagrean Army's flying unit was not just a meteor shower, the meteor rain was only used by Chen Jian to deal with ground targets, and for air targets, Chen Jian designated Hell Flame, a fire magic that was also powerful.

If you want to seize air supremacy, the first priority is to destroy the enemy's air power, so of course Chen Jian will not ignore the application of magic in aerial combat.

Therefore, he not only made the elves produce a batch of meteor fire rain magic staffs, but also made a batch of hell flame magic staffs, and he wanted to test his air supremacy tactics in this battle against Hammondal.

And the current facts also prove that Chen Jian's choice is correct.

The sudden sea of fire caused a large number of casualties to the griffin troops of the Erathian Army, the power of the magic flame was already amazing, and the feathers of the griffins were an excellent thing to ignite, all the griffons caught in the sea of fire almost instantly due to the burning of the feathers of the whole body into a large fireball that kept writhing and struggling, and then fell to the ground like a fire meteor formed by the magic of a meteor fire shower.

The Angel Legion of the Erathian Army, which had been unscathed in the enemy's rain of arrows, finally suffered casualties this time, and they were quickly targeted by the magicians of the Entagri Army, and almost a third of the hundreds of hell flame magic were used on them.

Although the martial arts are strong enough to fight against the dragons, the angels do not have the magic immunity of the dragons, and in the face of the magic attacks of the Entagri army, they can only dodge with their agile bodies, but the large-scale and lethal magic of the Hell Flame is obviously not easy to dodge, so the angel warriors can only use their flesh and blood to resist.

Fortunately, in order to deal with the magic attack of the Entagre Army, Elzak made the angels put on a loose formation, otherwise under this blow, this Angel Army, which was finally reorganized, would have to be greatly damaged.

But even so, there are many angels who are still killed by this attack, and when the advantage in speed and martial arts cannot be fully exploited, they are no different from most races, they can also be injured and killed.

Erzak was also disgraced in this wave of magic attacks, he was inevitably targeted by his opponent, after finally rushing out of the fire, he had multiple burns all over his body, most of his curly hair and beard were burned, and the white feathers on a pair of wings on his back were also scattered at this time.

Thankfully, however, Elzak did not lose his ability to fly, and the priest troops on the ground used healing magic to support the angels and griffons.

"Spread out some more and go full speed ahead"

Elzak yelled, hoping his men would hear his orders.

"The Dragons Attack"

At the same time, on the side of the Entagrean army, the black dragon Diodoras also gave the order to attack.

Then, a mixed dragon army of two thousand heads, consisting of black dragons, red dragons, and a small number of golden and green dragons, pounced on the enemy who had just suffered from the double baptism of arrows and magic from their own ranged troops.

"Ignore the angels, our target is the enemy griffon knights, be careful not to get entangled by the griffons"

Diodoras reminded the warriors of the Dragon Legion loudly in the dragon language, his thunderous voice allowing all the dragon warriors to receive his orders clearly.

At the same time, almost without an interval, the second wave of magical attacks by the mages of the Entagri Army began.

At Jian Chen's request, there have also been some changes in the use of magic in the magician unit of the Entagrui Army.

The batch installation of the same type of magic wand allows magicians to greatly increase the casting speed at the same time, and the casting frequency is no longer different due to personal strength and proficiency in magic, which allows magicians to achieve almost uninterrupted continuous segmented shooting like archers or crossbowmen, so as to inflict high-intensity and high-density attacks on the enemy in the shortest time, instead of the preparation time required for the magic cast by magicians due to different strengths as in the past. In order to achieve simultaneous attacks, it is a waste of time to wait for each other to increase the intensity and intensity of attacks, or to fight separately, and there is no rhythm at all.

In order to attack Hammondale this time, in order to attack Hammondal, Jian Chen led more than a thousand magicians of different strengths in the army he led, and these magicians were divided into six formations by him according to the calculation of different magic reserves and the frequency of spell casting, each team was about two hundred people, of which the three formations with the most magic power were equipped with meteor fire rain and hell flame magic wands made by the elf clan uniformly, and the other three magic power reserves were less, and the formations composed of low-level magicians were mostly composed of those magic wands of various types made in the early days.

In the previous attack on the camp of the Erathia Army, Chen Jiancai only used the first three formations, and did not let the three formations shoot in sections.

At this time, the flying unit of the Erathia Army was finally willing to show its head, and Jian Chen naturally had no intention of showing mercy to his subordinates, and directly sent the new tactics of his magician troops to the scene.

This is a tactic that even the mage legions of the Bracada Kingdom have not used, and the power of magic makes the mages of the Bracada Kingdom ignore too many things, and they spend far more time studying magic and improving their personal strength than they spend on strategy and tactics.

This situation caused the only mage nation that had been able to use this tactic before the Entagri Empire to realize what they had missed.

The Elassian griffin and angel legions, who had not yet recovered from the first wave of the enemy's magical attack, were once again greeted by the enemy.

The sea of fire reappeared.

Then came the third wave of attacks.

Another sea of fire appeared.

Then came the fourth, fifth, and sixth waves, a variety of magical storms that were just as powerful.

Then, the sea of fire reappeared.

The magicians of the Entagri army ravaged the enemy to their heart's content, not sparing their magic power at all, while the dragon warriors of the dragon legion followed the rhythm of the magicians and used their magic immunity to bypass the enemy's angel legion, with the five-headed dragon as a battle group, rampage through the group of griffins that were chaotic due to their own magic attacks, using their dragon fire to cause more chaos to the enemy and delay the enemy's progress. This gives your mages more time to perform magical strikes on their enemies, and the dragons can inflict deadly attacks on the griffon knights they find commanding griffons.

The magicians and dragons showed their skills, the harpys were not idle, although the magicians were powerful, but the number was always too small, and the number of griffons in the Erathian army was too large, there was always a time when they couldn't take care of it.

Therefore, the harpys are also using their light crossbows to carry out non-stop attacks on the enemy, and tens of thousands of harpies are also divided into several formations and shoot in sections.

At this time, the weakness of the harpy banshees' light crossbow power is insufficient, but it has become their advantage, because this weakness allows them to be like the magicians without worrying that their attacks will cause accidental damage to their dragons who are rushing left and right in the enemy's formation, and those crossbow arrows that can make the griffins scream again and again are shot on the dragons' bodies, because of the strong dragon scales and strong **, there is not much difference between the dragons and tickling, and the so-called can't break the defense, which refers to this situation.

Meng Gila led a formation of silver Pegasus knights, and also joined the attack, this army of Jungdagris composed of a large number of elves and a few humans is now in a hurry to show itself, these thousands of elven longbows are much stronger than the light crossbows of the harpies in terms of power and range, and their archery skills are also better, so Chen Jian asked them to focus their attacks on those fish that have broken through the blockade of their magic and crossbow arrows.

The rhythm of the battlefield was firmly controlled by the Entagri army, and the flying troops of the Erathia army had to pay a heavy price for every step forward, and the corpses of the griffons, which had been ravaged by the enemy's magic and crossbow arrows, kept falling like rain, and the angel legions led by Elzac also suffered a lot of losses, and in order to avoid more casualties, they scattered in all directions, and their formation was completely disrupted.

The priest troops of the Erathian army desperately supported the allies in the air who were being abused by the enemy in the roar of Inheim, and a large number of dispersals ** were thrown into the sky by the water mages among them, but to the embarrassment of the priests, although they successfully dispersed part of the enemy's magic, so that their griffons and angels avoided more casualties, but at the same time, they also had to disperse the beneficial magic that had been blessed on many griffons before, so that the speed of these griffons was greatly slowed down, Then the priests had to re-enchant the griffons in frustration.

When the battle came to such a point, because Heim was angry, annoyed and helpless, the opponent's tactics and equipment were far beyond his imagination, and the two sides were not competing on the same level at all.

But Inheim still didn't give up.

Because despite the unexpected heavy losses, the speed of the advance was urgent, and the formation was torn apart by the enemy, the flying units of the Erathia Army were still constantly approaching the enemy.

As soon as you enter the hand-to-hand combat stage, the situation should change dramatically.

Inheim thought so, but found that he seemed to have lost the confidence he had at the beginning.

It's really going to go well, right?

In his heart, Inheim asked himself like this, worried.

The flying units of the Entagre Army have not retreated a single step so far, will they be unprepared for the next hand-to-hand combat?

"Collect the crossbow for the spear, collect the crossbow for the spear"

Above the sky, as the Erathian army approached a certain distance, the harpy banshees of the Entagre army began to take up their light crossbows under the command of the middle and lower rank officers, and then replaced them with a new weapon that they had been grasping with a pair of bird's feet, a lightweight, wooden-rod spear with an iron tip.

"Change of formation"

Then, in the voice of the officers' commands, the harpy banshees quickly changed from the original shooting formation to another formation.

"Charge"

When the magicians finally stopped attacking, the harpies in formation began to flap their wings desperately with their spears in their spears, and began to charge in unison in the air.

"Courage, Responsibility, Honor"

As they charged, they shouted battle cries that were characteristic of the Ntagrean army in their crisp and slightly harsh voices, and the momentum was like a rainbow.

The Angel Clan, Demon Clan, and Venom Mantilion Troops, who had been on standby until now, also started to act at the same time, and the harpy banshees screamed and rushed towards the enemy's griffin group, while they aimed directly at the enemy's most advanced angel army.

The battle has progressed to the present, and finally entered the traditional air combat method on the continent of Erathia, and the armies of both sides have launched a face-to-face hand-to-hand fight in the sky.

As soon as the battle began, Inheim realized that he had completely misjudged the enemy's ability to fight hand-to-hand.

Originally, in the eyes of this famous imperial general, the Harpy troops with the largest number of opponents were not the opponents of the griffons in hand-to-hand combat, and this is also a recognized fact, in the last war, the Erathia army in the battle with the Negan Lord coalition army, has verified this fact countless times, although the Harpy are agile and good at retreating with one blow, but they are only equipped with short swords They have always performed poorly in large-scale melees, while the griffons are the best at this kind of large-scale melee.

It's just that this common sense can't be applied to the harpies who have now joined the Entagrean Army.

Because their weapon is no longer a traditional short sword, but a light spear, their fighting style has also changed from the previous fighting to a frontal charge similar to that of a knight.

The length of the spears prevents the harpys from getting too close to attacking them, and their speed and condescending charge make them lethal.

With just one face, at the cost of breaking their spears, the harpies managed to inflict a staggering number of casualties on the griffins.

The agile body of the harpy was also fully reflected at this moment, although many griffons have carried out such and such evasion actions in response to their attacks, but they still adjusted their bodies in time, accurately sent the spears in their hands into the griffins' bodies, and let go in time after the spears were broken, retreated, and then drew the short sword at their waists, pounced on them again, and continued to fight with the griffins in their traditional fighting methods.

And their fighting is different from what they used to be, they fight in organized squads, some are responsible for containment, others are responsible for attacking, and create opportunities for other allies who still have their spears to attack.

Coupled with the cover of the dragons, the harpy firmly held back the griffons' attack in the sky, and also occupied a considerable advantage.

This situation made the Angel Legion led by Elzac completely in a difficult situation, because they had to fight against the enemy's elite troops composed of Angels and Demons, which were no less numerous than their elite troops, and the number of poisonous manticores was even more amazing.
